Mao Gong Mountain
  Boli Mao Gong Mountain is situated in the western suburbs of Dasizhan Town, Boli County. Originally called Wolong Mountain, it is 60 kilometers from the city center of Qitaihe. To the south is the XuanYang River Reservoir, to the northwest is Wuqi Peak, and 3 kilometers away is the Jixing River Reservoir. The mountain is about 1 kilometer from the Bo-Yi Highway, with a soil road connecting it to the Boli Highway on its side, offering convenient access for both close-up and distant views. It is especially lifelike when viewed from the highway about 1 kilometer away from the peak.

  Mao Gong Mountain is a composite of several peaks. It earned the name “Mao Gong Mountain” because its shape strikingly resembles Chairman Mao lying on his back. The bare rocks on the mountain form the outline of the chest, abdomen, and the hands resting gently over them, while naturally grown trees resemble eyelashes, eyelids, and eyeballs. The area spans 20,000 square meters, with a relative height of 160 meters and a maximum circumference of 12,000 meters.

  To protect the trees on the mountain, the Boli County government has explicitly prohibited logging. Thanks to the natural formation of the mountain and its foliage, it is easily accessible for viewing.
